Assuming an original CJ axle (of any type), it will be a 5x5.5" pattern.

I have my original 2000 TJ wheels stored in boxes if you want them. I will make a very nice deal with you.

I am pretty sure that the TJ is a 5 on 4.5 pattern, and the CJ's were all 5 on 5.5 pattern. Most of the old ford and dodge trucks of the 1/2 ton variety with 5 lug wheels were on 5 on 5.5 as well, so you might be able to score a junk yard set cheap.

Agreed - all YJ, TJ hubs are 5x4.5 originally. You can usually find something junkyard - lots of CJ wagon wheels from the early 80s and 1/2 ton ford trucks of many years work as well.

I have some steel rims in pretty good shape that might work.
I'm not sure of the stud spacing but I do know they are larger than 4.5 I think they are off a ford -150

A 47 is going to be pretty limited on back-spacing. About 2.5-3" max, so be careful what wheels you pick up or you will be buying spacers too.

ford stuff will work nice, the newer stuff is back spaced to far you will be rubbing on springs and could have steering linkage issues as well.
